If you had to choose one type of fishing line for all applications
what type and Brand would it be?
Yo-Zuri Hybrid probably.
TUF-Line XP.
Fish
With out a doubt it would be Berkley Big Game. It is the best all around line made, period.
Yo-Zuri Hybrid soft, 12# for baitcasters
roadwarrior is spot on with this recommendation
I'm gonna go with P-line CXX, usually in 10-12lb. Clearly there is no answer, 6 responses and 6 different opinions. Everyone looks for different characteristics that make a particular line better for their needs.
Yo-Zuri Hybrid.
Tried a bunch of different brands, and copoly's and fluro's..I still go back to the Yozuri Ultrasoft, 6 to 20 lb test for different applications.
If I could have only one line it would be between these three
Sunline Shooter Defier Nylon Mono
Sunline Shooter FC
Daiwa braid
and the winning choice would more then likely be Sunline Shooter Defier Nylon Mono because I could use it for everything even tho I wouldnt love it for everything I could make it work. and this is coming from someone that has Daiwa braid on 85% of what I fish.
YoZuri US
i have not tried CXX yet, however.
YoZuri Hybrid.
Another vote for yozuri here

Well, for me it's Yo-Zuri Hybrid and Hybrid Ultra Soft:
Spinning: #6
Baitcasting #12
I do use one line for everything. Trilene XL. 6, 8,10,12 and 14.
If I really had to use one it'd be P-line cxx in 10-12lb. On a spinning reel if we get to have that different it'd be 6lb P-line Halo Fluoro.
seaguar invisx 15-20 lb
Yo Zuri Ultra Soft or Gamma Copoly
P-Line CXX
QuoteP-Line CXX
Same here...6# for spinning, and 10#-15# for BC.
P-Line CX Prem 12# & 14# on most Baitcasters
Daiwa Samurai on Spinning and Baitcaster Heavy Jig/Frog setup
I try a different line every once in awhile on peoples recommendations and always come back to Yo-Zuri. I stay with 10# either soft or regular.
I'm stuck in the dark ages.
Best all around line--Original Stren

I agree. I have tried dang near everything from $2 per spool to $40 per spool and CX Premium is the best all around line I've ever used. It doesn't stop me from using it on topwater but it does sink faster than mono.
Don't get it confused with CXX. It's a completely different line.

That's what I used in the 60s, and what I spooled with over the years since then. A great mono. I still have some 4lb and 6lb Stren on reels, but it's gradually getting phased out in favor of either new-age stuff, or an alternative mono (BPS Excel!) :
If the box says Sufix, you win.
I now have Fireline braid on everything but will be starting to use FC leaders for abrasion resistance
I like Sufix. But Trilene XL is great, too.
BIG GAME 8 to 15 pound will do it all ..that yozuri is good too my second choice
